JJ Bender: Hot Fresh Copy

Carbonless Paper Available for Xerox iGen3

Xerox announced earlier this week that it has a new paper, digital carbonless paper, available for the Xerox iGen3. The Xerox DocuColor iGen3 Digital Production Press is the largest and most powerful digital color copier available from Xerox today.

The new paper is treated to allow in-plant printing operations and commercial printers to print multi-part bank statements at between 90 and 110 pages per minute depending on whether a customer owns the Xerox iGen3 or Xerox iGen3 110.

According to the press release, the Digital Carbonless paper will allow printers to highlight content or add company logos in color. Moreover, multi-part bank statement can now be printed on-demand, rather than off pre-printed forms.

"Our customers have had great success printing multi-part forms on-demand using Xerox's carbonless paper," said Steve Simpson, vice president, Xerox Supplies Business Group. "Customers have reported saving up to 40 percent in cost and up to 50 percent in time using carbonless paper instead of manually collating sets of documents."

The Xerox iGen3 is the latest machine that can use the carbonless digital paper, which was introduced last year to work with black-and-white and color digital copiers. If you're looking for assistance in using buying, selling, or leasing a Xerox DocuColor iGen3, please consider talking to JJ Bender.

JJ Bender Releases FIND-IT: An International Digital Equipment Peripheral Program

As the digital color equipment marketplace expands internationally, regional suppliers are struggling to find the peripherals and accessories that commercial printers need. In an effort to meet the demand, JJ Bender announces the introduction of ‘FIND-IT,’ a concierge service for international customers that are looking for hard-to-find peripherals for digital equipment.

In an effort to meet consumer demand, JJ Bender, the world’s largest buyer and seller of Xerox production equipment, has created a system for ordering digital color peripherals that is designed to improve the worldwide distribution of parts and supplies.

The first group of peripherals that will be included in the ‘FIND-IT,’ program are the network and print boards for several models in the Canon imageRUNNER series. Network printing boards and fax boards are scarce resources that can unlock significant cost savings and allow machines to improve productivity through network connections. By including older modes like the IR2200 and IR2800 all the way up to the IR5000, IR6000, and IR105, JJ Bender will be able to reach users on all ends of the digital spectrum.

As part of the concierge service, international equipment dealers and end users can submit requests via JJ Bender’s online system at www.jjbender.com, or speak directly to a parts or peripherals expert. With over 26 years of experience with digital production equipment, JJ Bender is the world leader in understanding the availability and capacity of existing digital copiers and printers.

The ‘FIND-IT’ program is the latest initiative from JJ Bender, which has been reaching out to international clients this year with a variety of tailored programs. JJ Bender has assisted with the remanufacturing and conversion of equipment to meet the electronic and spatial requirements of clients in Europe and

Asia

Color digital copiers and printers continue to drive revenue growth for manufacturers and Canon is issuing its latest color digital duplicators designed to compete with the Xerox DocuColor 12, Xerox 240, and Xerox 2045.

The Color imageRUNNER C3380/C2880 Series, which brings big features and impressive color to the office in a small footprint, delivers output at speeds of up to 33/28 ppm, respectively, in monochrome and up to 28/26 ppm in brilliant color."
